80 players tested positive for COVID-19 today there isn’t going to be any baseball this season.
Fake news. Sure there will. There have been 80 players that have tested positive since June. Not today. This week was a good week for MLB testing. People need to stop posting fake crap like this. No wonder this is so much confusion on Covid every where!
